“More than 30 pro-Palestinian Harvard students participated in a 12-hour hunger strike”

More than 30 of them. I adhere to a 12 hour hunger strike every day. LOL

[Bob434]

Oooooh! 12 whole hours! That’ll teach em!

Wake me when they either pass out or pass on from hunger- then we will know they were serious about their asinine terror coddling agenda

[golux]

Harvard sucks dead goats.

[left that other site]

Not much of a Fast.

In fact, it was over pretty FAST. LOL.

Proper brainwashing technique is to browbeat the peons to believe X.

When that is complete then proclaim that believers in X are enemies of the state and all good citizens must now believe Y.

When the sheeple start believing Y you own them.

Probably the student’s trust fund pays the tuition.

There is a very different kind of student at Harvard these days. Odds are she is getting financial aid and odds are she's been an activist for years and that's why she was selected for admission. Harvard is getting exactly what they wished for.

>>The 17 students ended their strike at 5 p.m.“<<

Just in time for dinner. That’s very impressive!

[ridesthemiles]

EXPEL every single one of them.

[napscoordinator]

Most people fast from 6 pm to 6 am anyway. This is a joke.

[woodbutcher1963]

Brown protestors?

I know Cleveland has never won a Championship, but give me a break.

It’s not a hunger strike until a striker is hospitalized or dies.
Bobby Sands set the benchmark.

Sometimes I hunger strike from 630 pm to 7 am.

That’s OVER 12 hours of some sort of Solidarity.

Sheesh,,,what a joke. When I was about 11 years old my old man wouldn't come home for 2-3 days at a time. He drank his whole paycheck up in the bar. I used to go to the Acme in Blackwood,NJ and steal food. When I think back about it,the people who worked there probably let me do it. Thank God for the milkman. My old man never once payed him but he still delivered the milk. For a while I lived on milk. I remember one gallon glass bottles.

A twelve hour hunger strike amounts to an early dinner or late breakfast.

Saw on Fox News this morning that Brandon will now REFUSE TO DEPORT palestinian student muzzie troublemakers here causing these kinds of pro-terrorist protests, no matter what crimes they have committed

[NWFree]

I’m thinking they should shoot for 12 months and see if that works

[Kriggerel]

“...Hamas is being totally and forever destroyed as the existential enemy of Israel that has been at war and repeatedly taking hostages for more than 75 years...”

Yeah, I don’t think we’re even CLOSE to that point just yet. So far, Israel is still in the midst of the “kicking an anthill” stage. The REAL power of Hamas is currently sitting pretty in places like Qatar, Oman, Dubai, or attending Uni in a number of US Ivy Leagues, and directing all the gradually-escalating protests. I fear that the next stage of the conflict is going to be fought in western cities.

Go 12 weeks and I’ might give a wet scat about them. But on 2nd thought, I doubt it.

[Cold_Red_Steel]

Bobby Sands was just some mother’s son...

[jmaroneps37]

Wow a whole twelve hours? That’s about as long as sleeping off a New Year’s Eve party.
I’m sure they got a participation trophy for their “courageous” sacrifice.
